Default CMP - WTF are boiled Peanuts???

There was a crockpot filled with some nasty **** and peanuts in it. We saw some old lady and her grandkid actually buy some of these and i think eat them.????

What are the boiled in? They looked horrible.

Let me explain they are VERY GROSS!! When we moved here from Ohio I asked one of my southern buddies WTF these things were. They take a whole peanut and boil it in a salt water and something else mix in the shell and then you eat the peanut out of the soggy shell and it tastes like a really gross and soggy bean. They are very nasty. They are disgusting, I about put some of my lunch on my desk when I tried them.

I told them that there was a thread about them and they started to laugh and then I showed them this thread and they just keep saying they are so good....I just keep telling them they all have issues

wonder if they would taste better if you ate the shell too??? Probably couldn't taste as bad as they look.

The best nuts in Alabama are Pecans-I care not how they are cooked as long as they aren't mushy. Peanuts come different ways and that is just the way they are. You have to acquire the taste or be born with it I suppose. I'm a 'bama native raised in the north-so who am I to say which is better. I hate Okra in succotash -but breaded and fried--yummy

Damn good thing the Confederates lost the war, or they might be selling that crap at Disneyland. Then again, it'd be nice if fried okra were a bit easier to find out here...

Best place for fried okra in the North is to go to an Indian restaurant!

Boiled peanuts can be great and they can be horrible. Same as with grits.. I've had some horrible grits in my day.

Generally the farther north you are, the worse they taste (at least it's seemed that way).. but that's been changing lately.. quality has been going down (or getting more spotty) even in the south. Last time I had some they were nearly gag-worthy.. but I still get hungry thinking about boiled peanuts in general.

&lt;homer voice&gt; Mmmmm... 'Bohled' peanuts.. &lt;/homer voice&gt;

If you can track down some decent boiled peanuts and domestic beer you've got the makings of a nice, relaxing Sunday afternoon

Y'all just haven't done it right.

You're supposed to float 'em in an RC, then drink it and occasionally you get a peanut with a swallow.

Boiled peanuts are right up there with fatback and cracklin' cornbread!

I love salty boiled peanuts, but then I also grew up in Macon, GA. You don't eat the outside part, just crack it off, and eat the soft part inside. Yumm, yumm.

Boiled peanuts are really good, I have never had them soggy, usually they roast them after boiling them I buy them at trader joe's and they are a lot cruncher then normal peanuts and taste really good.
